Won’t Get Fueled Again – Featured Stamper Challenge #824

I think this is hilarious and I hope my dad does too. It’s his 74th birthday today, and he did listen to The Who quite a bit when I was growing up.

Here is the full dad joke.  It uses “jungle” font that I had downloaded for free at fontbundles.net.  As always, if you’d like to use this on your cards just right click on the image below and save it to your computer.  If you use it, I’d love to see it, so please tag me @cardsbyjennifrann and #thestampingactuary.

It’s Sunday and that means it’s time for the Featured Stamper Challenge.  I knew I wanted to use this joke today, but I went to our Featured Stamper, joejaykandi’s gallery for inspiration. I liked this card, because I could use the humor element and the sheet music background for my card:

I printed the sentiment, then stamped this fun bus and drew on the flag design to really make it look like a Who tour bus. Then I stamped the sheet music background on some shimmery gray paper and added a bit of hand drawn border for a little added interest.

Couldn’t Turn It Down – Color Challenge #910

Karen is our hostess for this week’s Color Challenge and she has chosen Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party, and Blushing Bride for our colors. And for dessert–music.

Well, I have several music related jokes waiting to be featured on my cards. This was an easy one, because I have this fun boombox stamp. I used my gelli plate to make a background using my best approximations of the colors (I used Tattered Rose, Twisted Citron, and Mermaid Lagoon). I cut and flipped the pieces to give it some added interest and finished off with some music background stamps.

That’s not the only joke I used so far this week.  My card for this week’s Featured Stamper Challenge also cracked me up.

This week’s Featured Stamper is Craftea19. Her gallery is very fun and I really enjoyed browsing it. This card inspired me because this Snoopy image is one of my favorites and Sabrina was kind enough to stamp off a few for me. I had one left. I also had this other cute car image that either Heather or Joanne sent to me. I can’t remember!

This sentiment describes me perfectly. I created the sentiment using Groundnut font that I downloaded from fontspace.com.  As always, if you’d like to use this on your cards just right click on the image below and save it to your computer.  If you use it, I’d love to see it, so please tag me @cardsbyjennifrann and #thestampingactuary.

And here’s the inside:

Always fun for a birthday card.

Best Things in Life – Featured Stamper Challenge #802

This week’s Featured Stamper is mschoener! Maggie is such a delight and I really enjoyed browsing her gallery. I landed on this card because I loved the sentiment.

I’ve also combined with Barbara’s CC900 (CC845) Color Challenge colors with metallic for dessert. The metallic convinced me to foil my sentiment–it doesn’t take much. I finally jumped on the foiling bandwagon and I’m really enjoying the ride. I created the sentiment on my computer, printed it out with my brand new Brother laser printer and foiled it in gold.

I don’t have that sentiment stamp, so I had to create it myself.  If you’d like to use this on your cards just right click on the image below and save it to your computer.  If you use it, I’d love to see it, so please tag me @cardsbyjennifrann and #thestampingactuary.

This funny cat was on my to-do list. There is a fish bowl for him to be looking at, but I went with a cupcake to match the sentiment. I’ve colored this chunky cat to match my friend, Liz’s cat. It’s heading her way for her birthday. I realized after I took the picture that I forgot to add the Stickles sprinkles on the cupcake.

Tacos Fall Apart – Featured Stamper #779

Today’s Featured Stamper is leslielarkin. Leslie has such a wonderful gallery, I wanted to CASE all her fun cards. She uses DSP so well. I couldn’t decide between using Witty-Cisms by leslielarkin at Splitcoaststampers and Whale Done by leslielarkin at Splitcoaststampers so I combined the two. 

       

You know I can’t resist a good pun, so they both spoke to me.  I started by stamping black and white tacos with little pink cheeks to make my own DP. Then I stamped and colored the focal taco. I chose to use some fun bright DP behind my black and white tacos in honor of Leslie’s fabulous work.  It took me a while to decide between “Let’s taco ’bout it” and “Let’s taco ’bout your birthday.”  In fact, I had the party hats all ready to go for this card.  But once I decided on this inside sentiment, “Let’s taco ’bout it” won out.

This is made with my very own font that I designed using calligraphr.com.  If you’d like to use this on your cards just right click on the image and save it to your computer.  If you use it, I’d love to see it, so please tag me @cardsbyjennifrann and #thestampingactuary.
